Separation anxiety is one of the most common problems that dogs develop. It’s an anxiety disorder and is defined as a state of intense panic brought on by the dog’s isolation/separation from her owner(s). In other words: when you leave for work in the morning, your dog is plunged into a state of nervous anxiety that intensifies exceptionally quickly. Dogs are social animals – they need plenty of company and social interaction to keep them happy and content. No dog likes to be left alone for long periods, but some dogs do a lot worse than others: these are the ones most prone to separation anxi ..read more

Dog digging making you crazy? Put a stop to it.

There are two extremes of opinion when it comes to dogs and their digging habits: 1. That a dog is a dog, and we should permit him to express his true canine nature by allowing him free reign over the yard and flowerbeds 2. A flowerbed is a flowerbed, and no dog should even think about expressing his dogginess if such an expression comes at the price of a season’s worth of rosebuds. My viewpoint tends to favor the middle ground. Although plenty of dogs do love to dig, and it’s healthy for them to be permitted to indulge in this habit from time to time, there’s a difference between letting you ..read more

Selective breeding over the centuries has minimized and refined this trait significantly. Still, there’s just no getting around it: dogs are physically capable of inflicting severe harm (look at those teeth!) because that’s how they’ve survived and evolved. And Mother Nature is pretty wily – it’s hard to counteract the power of instinct! But that doesn’t mean that ..read more

When it comes to bringing a puppy home, they are looking for guidance on where they stand in their environment. Are they the pack leader, are they in the middle, or are they a follower? We are to give me that guidance. Are you the pack leader? If a dog is out in the wild, its pack leader will eat first, and then the others can feast on what is leftover.
